Smart Girl


In the Fall, Emily took the NECAP Test at school and did very well. She scored a 463 out of 480 in Reading, which put her in the top 8% in her school and the highest level for the test. In Math, she scored a 453 out of 480, which was just 2 points below the highest level. Great job, Emily!

Emily loves to read! She knew that during our week of no tv, no wii, no computer that she would get more reading done and she sure did. When we discussed going unplugged, Emily pointed out that she would like to read more at home, but when the tv, wii, and computer are on, she is distracted and then she doesn't read. I'm glad Emily was able to focus more on reading this past week and I'm glad we successfully made it through our unplugged week. We are no longer unplugged, but we will be less plugged in now than we were before.

Great job Emily! I love to read too and I know your mom & dad are great readers. High math scores are impressive.
